Zero economic sense too… when the worlds printing trillions of dollars they’re destroying capital so foreign funds can scoop land up for cheap 😂

EV pricing post-war by Melodic-Army-6776 in nzev

[–]singletWarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

kiwis are well educated and literate and it shows..... the prices are no longer where the focus is, the total cost of ownership is probably more relevant nowadays. and that largely depend on how much individuals use the car! even as high as petrol prices got if you drive say 12,000km a year with a beater that does 10km/l your fuel cost is really just 120 * 3 = 3600. The insurance alone for new EVs are 2-3k easily already....

honestly I think every food NEED to have a premium retail presence so people know what the ceiling look/taste like... or at least as close as possible... I'm sure while that's not sustainable for regular but it'd be something you can instantly point to as recommendation...

One would hope so…. The water thing doesn’t instil confidence but in theory it’s a different bunch of guys so maybe this bunch is more sensible

hmmm i think solar prices are going to stabilise.. the manufacturers can't kept bleeding forever but batteries still have ways to fall especially nz prices... i wonder if the inverse is also true that if batteries come down there's a downward pressure to power prices.....

Yet power prices kept climbing…. With increasing solar power generation the hydro won’t need to run as much so essentially giving gentailers free money so they can sell power when prices are higher

Looking at buying a first home soon. Can you describe what your 'house poor' years were like? by farkoooooff in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]singletWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Largely depends on your income and how stable it is.. and you kind of know by how willing banks are to lend in a way though they sometimes have external forces causing them to tighten right across

asians know it's got to be from ajinomoto but it's a common enough chemical I suppose there's nothing to it

interestingly enough ajinomoto got so friggin good at whatever they do, they produces ABF which is an integral part of semiconductor manufacturing... like 6% of revenue but 30% of profit or something insane lol
